Silk Road Forums

Awesome to see people learning PGP, I think we should all make sure we teach at least 1 person how to use PGP if we see they are struggling around the forum. The more people we teach how to use it, the more secure transactions will be.

From personal experience in the past, if I want to store long term then I would use..

*CLEARNET WARNING*
Bitaddress.org

offline to then generate a address and would then print out the private key and the QR code on to paper and then make sure I store that in a safe place. You can then send Bitcoin to that address and it will be secure.

If you are keeping coins in cold storage for a short period then you can even use Bitcoin-QT client offline for short periods. There is always Armory which is pretty much just as good.

Just sent message to someone. Think I screwed up. Says the key has both public and private part. I forgot to say look in my profile for public key block, is this common knowledge? This is how I sent:

You won't find anyone willing to do that here, due to charge back problems. Also I guess people are less willing to give out their personal information here also. Take a look at,

*CLEARNET WARNING*

LocalBitcoins.com

Then take a look at the payment options there and see if you can use one of those methods.

JohnTheBaptist-   Very sorry to delay you. Or cause any problem.  I just needed to have cookies on.

DPR and godfather, Thanks for the advice/time ect.  I had lost all faith there for a second.

So once again order without fear, im up and running!!

Welcome back, stay safe out there.

Hello!

Awesome you are thinking of using PGP, it's great to keep your messages secure and make sure they are only read by the intended recipient.

The GPG program I use is - GPG4USB which I downloaded from

*CLEARNET WARNING*

http://gpg4usb.cpunk.de/

Once you download it you can install it and then go to

> Manage Keys Tab
> Key Tab
> Generate New Key
> Enter a name, Set to never expire, Set 4096 Key Size, Password.

You have now made your PGP Key!

You will see your key in the left, to get your public PGP Key right click your key and go to "Append selected key" and your PGP Public Key which looks like this will come up.
